French Fancy

PEUGEOT PH8
Acquired in terrible condition, this bike was saved!
The PH8 was a well equipped machine that was for touring or commuting.
They were made in the 80s and came in various sizes and colours.

Underneath all this clutter and junk lies a beautiful French bicycle!

This wheel is shot! Look at that horrible steel Huret derailleur.

The chain is seized, it's all rust and dirt.

Big horrible waterlogged reflector and manky dynamo lamp!

A carrier and red light on a rear mudguard! Who want's them?

Front wheel has come to a halt!

Ah, Carbolite +, lugless frame, now you're talking! 

Who ordered that thing? A stand on a bike? What the hell, take it off now!

After the big strip-down!

Te crap that came off it!

Ta-Dah! Hard to believe it's the same bike.
